Leading London headhunter dies

I worked for Tom a couple of years ago. Great person to work with and great individual. I was shocked to hear that he is no more. As a young professional building up my career, I used to admire his tough stance in difficult times and his friendly stance, a true professional.

A great salute to a great individual. My obvious thoughts lie with his wife and son and family in this difficult time.

I came across Tom professionally, and then he became a good friend, for the past nine years. He cared greatly for those he came across, had immense integrity, a first rate sense of humour, and was always excellent company. I am shocked by his early death, and greatly saddened. I had introduced him to shooting: we were all looking forward to many more days together in the field. Our love and thoughts are with his wife and son. A true gentle, man.

We are very shocked and saddened by this news in Hong Kong. Although I only worked with Tom for a short time at Whitney Group, he was always extremely understanding and reassuring. He helped the Hong Kong office deal with a lot of major changes about a year ago. My thoughts are with his family, his wife and son.

I worked for Tom for a number of years at Whitney Group and am deeply saddened by this news. He cared greatly for the people who worked under him and he will be sadly missed.

I would like to give my deepest condolences to his wife and son.
